Jun 2019: I absolutely love this place. Zantavia and her staff genuinely make you feel welcome and are tentative to any questions or concerns you may have. The atmosphere itself makes you want to call The Retreat home. Review from Google Jun 2019: The Retreat at Brightside is an incredible establishment. The staff is definitely professional and helpful. I believe it is a wonderful place to live with a great community surrounding it. The manager, Zantavia has been working incredibly hard to make sure everything is together and that I would be impressed by her establishment. I enjoyed meeting her and hopefully will become apart of this community in the future! Thank you! Review from Google Jun 2019: The staff is amazing. Very friendly and helpful in every way possible! Review from Google May 2019: I did write a review during a moment of frustration but I was not being fair. I gotta say that I loved living here for 4 years during vet school. I enjoyed the parties, activities, food (the administration takes time to make food for residents). Its close to lsu, theres a bus stop in front of the complex, 24 hours small fitness center, free coffee. Its also safe. I am going to miss this place really bad. I cannot say anything regarding rent since I have never did any research but Its honestly not too bad considering how close its to school which in undergrad you dont even need a car. Review from Google May 2019: LOVE the new manager, team and all the events! Maintenance is always quick. Happy I renewed for another year! Review from Google May 2019: Great apartments with various floor plans. Nice updated floor plans. The parking is great in the complex and they are pet friendly which is AWESOME! Review from Google May 2019: Best complex in Baton Rouge! Great deal for all the amenities offered. Clean, great location, and wonderful staff! Review from Google May 2019: Good place to stay. Quiet at nights. Always friendly staff eager to help. Review from Google Mar 2019: This is my 4th year living in baton rouge apartments, and Oakbrook has been by far the cleanest and safest apartments that I have stayed at. All the appliances are brand new and if there is a problem with utilities then someone will come fix it almost immediately unlike other places. Great place and it is cheap and affordable. Review from Google Feb 2019: When I moved here, I got an apartment with an unkept and unclean kitchen. The management changed after a few months and now I have to fight with the new management to convince them the former roommates kept it this way. Eventually I had to clean up the mess of a complaining roommate. I also pay 1/4 the water and utilities for 5 peolpe in a 4 bedroom apartment. Thanks cee cee. not renewing my lease. Feb 2019: Love the community and my apartment. Pet friendly and everyone has been so nice. I especially give thanks to the maintenance staff. They are quick and have great customer service. I'd recommend them. Review from Google Feb 2019: It has the potential to be so much more. I was initially excited about the move. I’ll start by saying ROACHES! I have had to beg them to spray the entire building. Roaches crawl up the walls and stairs outside. These are the large ones AND THE SMALL GERMAN ROACHES. I have never lived anywhere where I had a pest problem. The office denies they have infestations, but I’ve seen other residents complaining about the problem and getting roach baits. I was informed by pest control has an infestation.
Plumbing issues which were uncovered when the a/c broke. The sink drains slowly in kitchen and toilets backup and smell horrible when they are flushed. The a/c was broken and I had to show them a video of how I had to take a pole and turn it on from the unit in the ceiling before they decided to send someone to fix it properly.
The pool is alwa Review from Google Feb 2019: I don't feel safe cuz baby Joe spinned the benz at 10:40. R.I.P Ashton Wells. #TBGk Review from Google Feb 2019: I went in for a tour a few weeks ago with my girlfriend and the staff was incredibly rude. The person we were dealing with actually rolled their eyes at me when I was just asking some basic questions. I have heard that they have a ton of maintenance issues and that it takes forever to get stuff fixed so I am not really sure why we thought about leasing there in the first place. I do not recommend!!! Review from Google Jan 2019: ******DO NOT RENT HERE. I WAS THAT PERSON THAT READ THESE REVIEWS AND DECIDED TO TO DO IT ANYWAY. OUR LEASE STARTED IN APRIL/18. FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE TO RENT. i was that person who thought that i couldn’t be that bad******Not happy with Tuscany Villas. Anyone wanting to rent here read what i have to say. & don’t take it lightly. The day we made a WEEK of living here someone broke into the apartment right below us. When i called the security officer he didn’t answer and never called us back. I called the REAL cops. & they came and filed a police report. The office NEVER called me back after i left 3 very spooked voicemails. It wasn’t until i showed up on my break to let them know someone broke in below us that they tried to care. Granted this was under old management, but clearly that doesn’t make a difference. Because now under new ma Review from Google Jan 2019: The staff here is simply amazing! The property is very nice, the location couldn’t be greater. Jan 2019: DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT LIVE HERE. The staff office is horrible. They act as if they dont know anything or cant do anything about any problems you have. They dont care about their residents. The bathrooms have a naturally smelly odor. The apartments always have little bugs inside them. There are holes in the wall in the bathroom closet. Review from Google Jan 2019: My boyfriends truck was broken into 3 times within a year, they broke the passenger window and stole several items. Parking is a nightmare. Neighbors are extremely loud, especially during football season and nothing is done to address this. Not to mention a shooting. There’s a massive lack of security and lighting, it took someone being shot and killed to get a mediocre security guard on the premises. Review from Google Dec 2018: My daughter stayed here for 2 years while attending LSU. Decent place - nothing fancy. Small pool and workout room. Usually attentive management and maintenance of complex. Covered parking garage. Withing walking distance to the LSU campus and near a number of restaurants and a CVS. Dec 2018: I loved my apartment in the beginning...until the maintenance problems surfaced, I have been workout a working washer for about a month now, I have had A/C and heating problems with a wire EXPOSED and no one is willing to fix it. I have only been here 2 months and this is ridiculous. It's a shame that people work hard to provide themselves a place to live, but they could care less, you better have your rent on time, nothing else matters. I would stay away if I were you.
Apartment 246 Review from Google Dec 2018: My lease cannot end soon enough!!! Parking alone is enough frustration. Getting home from work after dark with two small children & having nowhere to park is ridiculous! You would think with as much money I have to pay in rent that I’d at least enjoy coming home! Residents with multiple vehicles should not be allowed to hold all the decent spots hostage if not paying for a reserved space. I’ve been here for two months & the same white truck has been parked in a space that has never moved! I am scared to death coming home having to walk long distances in the dark (poor outside lighting near my building) with my children. The community & apartments are very nice but the noise level & parking issue definitely need major improvements!! Review from Google Dec 2018: The gate has been decorative thing since two years ago. NEVER WORK!!!!! The complex is unsafe Review from Google Dec 2018: I have only been here for one semester and it has been way better than the woodlands. The appliances are great and don’t break easily. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious. The rent is cheap and the staff is very friendly. I would recommend living here to any of my friends. The only reason I give it four stars is because our A/C has been broken for a week, but they gave us a window unit until it is fixed. Review from Google Dec 2018: I parked a rental car in front of my apartment. After only a few minutes the car got booted. I paid $200 to remove the clamp on the wheel. When I talked to the manager, she said that's for the safety.. But that is not true .. If they want to enhance the safety in the property, they should have fixed the gate .. The gate has been broken since I moved (May 2017) .. Every time I asked them about the gate, they are still working on that! Hey... a gate is not a sophisticated system ! If you cannot get a gate fixed in 2 years, close your business Review from Google Nov 2018: Currently a tenant at Teamwood. Horrible place to live. Slow on work orders and not professional. Office worker, Brittany, is really nice and makes it half way bareable. Review from Google
